I swore I'd never return. Not to the pack that exiled me.
Not to him.
But the Luminal Order doesn't care about broken hearts or old scars. They gave me a choice—return and play nice, or face arrest. So now I'm back in the one place I swore I'd burn to the ground, standing across from the alpha who shattered me.
And here's the kicker—I have to pretend to be his mate.
Again.
Every instinct in me screams to run, but there's more at stake than pride. I've got a secret buried deep, one that could get me killed if the wrong wolf finds out. I'm no one's omega anymore. I'm a traitor in hiding. A liar. A ticking time bomb.
But the bond between us never died.
And if I let myself feel again, I might just lose everything.
Fated mates. Forbidden pasts. One last lie before the truth destroys us both.
